looks good man! how did you fill the old holes, welded them? looks like they matched the color pretty good.

personally, i love the FD without any wing at all.

Very nice! Cheers to another CYM owner.

Both wings are great..your first Racing Beat spoiler looks similar to the RE Amemiya one somewhat. The new one now is the Type II from Racing beat right? What you gonna' do with the old one? Hmmm.... I was debating on RE Amemiya or eFini spoiler.

BTW, how come the RX-7 letters are crooked? Hehe.

I like this wing! I have been thinking of ripping my R1 off and going with the 99 Spec but this one doesn't look much different to me. Good choice.

Hi,

Nothing wrong with displaying it. Same goes with framing fish. Anyhow, awesome wing and FD. Rims are perfect too with that lip...oooh, can't wait to get mine eventually.

Have a good one,
FDZ

I'm having a hard time finding this wing for sale anywhere. Maybe it's just my stupidity but I looked on the Racing Beat website and could only find a price and order info on the Type 1. So help me out here and tell me where I can purchase this wing? Thanks - Brad

Wow, that sux. I guess I'll just have to save a little extra cash and get the 99 Spec then.

Looks good. I am the opposite of you though, have a racing beat type II wing but I want a stock R1 spoiler, I like the more subtle look. Only problem is I don't want to just cover up the holes so I would have to get a new hatch, so doesn't look like I will be doing it any time soon.
